I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

True. Plans made.

#1 is in the queue. Wine will be had, just in case but "it's cheesy but it owns it." sold me.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

And for those of you who were wondering, the runner-up in the Frank Millerest Sentence competition was “I’m gonna kill you all kinds of dead,” which I seriously wish I’d come up with.

I prefer "Kill him a lot!!" from the Buffy movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, someone talk down to me. What's the difference between this Batman Begins[Widescreen Dubbed Subtitle AC3] - Blu-ray Disc for $19.99 and this Batman Begins[Widescreen Dubbed Subtitle AC3] - Blu-ray Disc for $33.99? Just a prologue?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

From the descriptions, it actually looks like the cheap one has more extras. Maybe the other one is in a collectible box? I have no idea.

Aha. Looking at the covers, I think the pricier one is this "gift set."

The limited-edition Blu-ray gift set includes Blu-Ray high-def exclusive content: The Dark Knight Prologue, plus Hollywood Movie Money to see The Dark Knight in theaters (a $7.50 value), 32-page exclusive Dark Knight Prologue book, 16-page comic book adaptation of the first 6 minutes of The Dark Knight, a Batman Begins lenticular, and five collectible post cards. (Movie Money ticket offer expires 8/18/08. Valid in participating theaters only. Restrictions apply.)

Conclusion: Get the cheaper one. And I love playing detective!

Thanks--certainly nothing I need in the gift set. Not that I have a Blu-ray player yet. But that'll probably be my first purchase.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

This vampire movie sounds kind of neat: [link]

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Ooh. That does look interesting. I hope it will be released here.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I saw that film reviewed in Newsweek and was intrigued.

We watched The Last King of Scotland a few days ago and I was really impressed. I didn't think I'd like the film when it was released but man, Forest Whitaker (not surprisingly) was impressive. The pacing was good and James McAvoy was also good.

We also watched Taxi to the Darkside, which is just fucking depressing.
